State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR) Assessment Design Attributes 1 Sara Elizabeth Perez EDIM510
Focus The STAAR program is designed to focus assessments on: Readiness Standards (RS) Supporting Standards (SS) Readiness standards will be emphasized annually.  Supporting standards will be emphasized randomly each year. 2
 General Characteristics
Clarity The majority of the assessments will test content studied that year, as opposed to testing content studied over multiple years.  4
Depth A primary feature of STAARโ€™s test design is a focus on preparedness for success in subsequent grades or courses and, ultimately, for college and career. This requires the tests to emphasize depth rather than breadth in assessing student expectations. The rigor of items will be increased by assessing skills at a greater depth and level of cognitive complexity.  5
